Chapter 39 Be careful or I'll hit you
Wen Tang also raised his hand, "Mom, you take a rest at noon, I'll light the fire."
Originally, Chi Yue said she could cook fish, and Zhong Meixian didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but when Wen Tang asked to light the fire...
Zhong Meixian immediately shook her head. "Just tell me what you two want to eat and I'll make it."
The two of them ran to the kitchen like bandits.
Wen Tang even assured Zhong Meixian, "Don't worry, Mom. We'll get better the second time. I promise I won't burn the kitchen this time!"
Chi Yue also spoke up for Wen Tang, "Grandma, don't worry, I'm watching you!"
Gu Yanli took a stool in his hand and sat down at the kitchen door, "I'll sit here and watch too."
He was really prepared to rescue people in case of fire.
Smoke rose from the kitchen, and Gu Jinfeng and the others returned from the fields.
Seeing Zhong Meixian sitting at the gate, and then looking at the smoke rising from the chimney, Gu Jinfeng said as soon as she reached the gate, "Is Yan Li cooking today?"
Zhong Meixian quickly signaled her to keep quiet, and then signaled Gu Jinfeng to squat down.
As soon as Gu Jinfeng squatted down, Zhong Meixian pointed at the kitchen and said exaggeratedly, "It's those two!"
Gu Jinfeng was very surprised. "The two of them?"
Gu Jinfeng couldn't believe it.
"Yes, your brother caught the fish, and he was afraid that my cooking wouldn't be tasty, so he cooked it himself!"
Gu Jinfeng understood, "So it's because of greed."
Zhong Meixian quickly patted her on the shoulder and signaled her to shut up.
Gu Jinfeng covered her arm that was hurt by the slap, without waiting for her to show her teeth.
Zhong Meixian whispered to her, "Just shut up, or I'll hit you!"
Then the old lady asked her to return the things. Luo Tian and her sister came to the house, and because Luo Qiao said something unpleasant, Wen Tang and Chi Yue rushed up and beat him up.
Gu Jinfeng was stunned after hearing this, "Really...really fighting?"
Zhong Meixian nodded, "Yes, your daughter-in-law..." Zhong Meixian said this and looked back, fearing that Chi Yue or Wen Tang might appear behind her. "She was very ruthless," Zhong Meixian said, thrusting her head forward and imitating, "She bumped into her and the educated youth was knocked to the ground."
"If I hadn't stopped them, they would have gone up and beaten him up!"
In fact, she went to stop them because she was afraid that Luo Qiao and Luo Tian would fight back and Wen Tang and Chi Yue would suffer, but now that she learned it from Gu Jinfeng, she exaggerated it.
But the result of her exaggeration was that Gu Jinfeng was stunned.
When Wen Tang said the meal was ready, Gu Jinfeng immediately put on a big smile and said, "Hey, sister-in-law, did you and Xiaoyue cook the meal?"
"I was wondering, I could smell the fragrance from so far away, I thought someone was having another banquet!"
"It turns out that our chef is in charge."
Zhong Meixian "..."
You can talk like that, where are you going to apply for the job?
Besides, I've said it all, what did she say?
"What kind of dish did you two make? Why does it smell so good?"
Everyone likes to hear nice words, and Wen Tang likes to hear them too. Wen Tang pointed at the fish that had been put in the basin and smiled, "This is the fish that Yan Li caught. Yueyue grilled it. It's spicy and delicious!"
Gu Jinfeng simply gave a thumbs up and said, "Yueyue's cooking skills are better than mine. I have been cooking for my entire life, but I have never been able to cook such a delicious fish."
Chi Yue also smiled and said, "If mom wants to eat it, I will cook it next time if you prepare fish."
Gu Jinfeng kept nodding her head, "Okay, okay, okay."
Zhong Meixian also stood at the kitchen door. Because her daughter had already said all the compliments, she could only say, "It smells good! It smells good!"
Chi Yue's spicy fish was indeed well cooked. At the dinner table, even the taciturn Gu Juyuan and Lin Liansheng praised the fish, saying "the fish is delicious, delicious."
Although the fish was big, there were so many people eating there, and each person took one chopstick, so the fish meat was gone quickly.
After eating most of the fish, Zhong Meixian finally remembered to say, "Jingshen, Jiaojiao, Shuhe and the others will be back in the evening. Should we leave some for them?"
Zhong Meixian looked at the fish meat which was almost gone and said, "There is still a lot of meat in the fish head."
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yanli picked up half of the fish head with his chopsticks and put it in her bowl, "Aren't there two more?"
"Just make another one tonight."
Food can shut your mouth, especially the food you love.
Zhong Meixian loves to eat fish heads. She thinks they are tasty and the meat inside is tender, so she likes to eat them.
One third of the fish head was put in her bowl. Zhong Meixian wanted to say nothing.
What’s there to say? There’s not enough to eat anyway, so just eat as much as you can!
Then everyone continued eating.
Wen Tang also said, "It would be delicious if we put some bean sprouts and tofu in it."
“Lotus root will work too!”
Zhong Meixian and Gu Jinfeng, mother and daughter, looked at each other and read the same meaning from each other's eyes, that is, this girl is indeed a glutton.
But now they dare not speak out.
They were silent, and then Gu Yanli said, "I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative this afternoon."
Zhong Meixian gave Gu Jinfeng another look: You see, it's all his fault.
Gu Jinfeng didn't dare to respond to her this time. She did not forget what Zhong Meixian told her before dinner, that Wen Tang and Chi Yue really beat people up.
He even dared to beat the educated youth from the city, and knocked them to the ground as soon as he came up.
The educated youth in the city are so good at beating people, wouldn't it be even easier for the two of them to team up and beat up her, the mother-in-law/sister-in-law?
Gu Jinfeng buried her head in eating.
Also, the food my daughter-in-law cooks is really delicious.
She can be said to be enjoying the blessing of being a daughter-in-law!
Gu Jinfeng felt happy thinking this.
In this comparison, she is more fortunate than her mother. The daughter-in-law her mother married was only lazy and greedy, but it was not the case with their family. The daughter-in-law they married was quite good at cooking!
Compared like this, doesn't she feel blessed?
Gu Jinfeng was thinking about it and almost humming a song at the dinner table.
Gu Jinfeng was born to Zhong Meixian, and they had lived together for decades. Zhong Meixian knew Gu Jinfeng so well that she knew what she was doing the moment she moved her butt.
Seeing the expression on Gu Jinfeng's face at this moment, Zhong Meixian immediately thought of the contrast between the two new brides.
Thinking of this, Zhong Meixian felt that the fish head in the bowl was no longer fragrant.
She doesn't want to eat at the same table with her daughter's family next time.
Gu Jinfeng had no idea what she was thinking. She just finished her meal happily and then stood up. "I'll clean up the dishes. You two don't need to move. You two cooked lunch. I'll wash the dishes," Gu Jinfeng hummed a song and got busy.
Gu Jinfeng hummed a song and walked out of the main room carrying the dishes and chopsticks.
Zhong Meixian said unhappily from behind, "Look how proud she is of herself."
Wen Tang really didn't see why her elder sister-in-law was so proud, but she loved gossiping, so she approached her mother-in-law and asked, "Mom, what is your elder sister so proud of?"
Zhong Meixian "..."
What are you proud of?
Is she proud that her Lin family has a daughter-in-law who can cook, while her Gu family has nothing?
But it’s hard for Zhong Meixian to say this!
While Zhong Meixian was silent, Wen Tang had already run back to the house and grabbed a handful of melon seeds for her. He cracked one and continued to ask, "Mom, tell me something!"
Just as Wen Tang finished speaking, a voice came from the front door of the Gu family, "Jinfeng, is Jinfeng home?"
